Other than the usual reasons from the usual suspects, I think they got mindbroken by the FBI crime statistics that came out ~2015 IIRC, where it showed that despite being 13% of the population african americans committed around ~50% of the murders in the entire country. They couldn't accept that at face value, so they handwaved it away and explained it as just racism and over-policing. See, it wasn't that they ACTUALLY committed the majority of murders, it's just that police were racist and targeted those poor souls and the racist judicial system convicted them at higher rates (because racism, of course).

So now we have a system where other demographics are recorded as white to artificially even out the statistics, and the police/courts have to treat them with baby gloves on because if they did their jobs, they would get in trouble for "racism".
